US US Politics General - Discussion of President Biden and other politicians

 

[Bakarina]

Ngl I am actually fairly stunned that the live action remake of Snow White is a white woman.

She's actually a flavor of brown and the photo doesn't do her justice. Her opening her mouth and bashing the original animated film had Disney Execs pulling this remake from the OG release date and moved it to 2025 i think (plus, dailywire's version simply *looked* better and I think Disney got spooked).

I don't see what Trump would've gained from lying to RFK. The guy delivered him the victory with his withdrawal when he was looking to be a fairly strong spoiler candidate beforehand. He's also highly popular with the Zoomers, which I think is part of how Trump won the youth vote.

Agreed on this and RFK essentially gave up everything to support Trump after he did that his political career was over as far as the left is concerned. There is no way Trump could have snubbed that.

 

[John.Doe]

As it is currently organized, he will oversee the FDA, the CDC, and the NIH. I'm sure they'll find some way for him to oversee the USDA too.

Considering the counter-offer from the Democrats was to receive Jack and Shit, RFK was absolutely 1000% correct to accept Trump's offer. Thats a good amount of power in exactly the places where he and Trump align, with minimal opportunities for friction. Also, giving this position to RFK is a big bright neon sign to let everybody know that loyalty will be rewarded, deals honored, and promises kept.

Anything less would have been a snakish betrayal and poisonous to any further alliances.

RFK Jr has balls of steel and the new Trump admin won’t try to sweep it under the rug if he gets executed. I really hope Bobby accomplishes what we need though.

My only concern with these cabinet picks is getting confirmed. I don't know how many R senators will defect and vote against Bobby Kennedy or Tulsi or Matt Gaetz.

 

[Amelia Troonheart]

Jokes aside - I am hoping he can get that house in order. Just leave my Fatboy icecream sandwiches alone, Bobby.
Bobby... Noooo, Bobby. Bobby, I don't care if it has arsenic in it! My body, my choice, Bobby!

Just took a glance and they have corn syrup listed multiple times alongside caramel color, carageenan, and some other weird shit. Sorry dude. You're fucked.

They’ll be recess appointees. There’s no way they can pull it other than going fully executive. I’m excited.

 

[Eekum Bokum]

I hope Stephen Miller's future US Dept. of Denaturalization sends this limey hack back to his miserable island.

Can't you just send him to Canada like why do we have to suffer.

 

[COME ON OUT YOU RAPIST]

Can't you just send him to Canada like why do we have to suffer.

If the boat sinks (he's the only one on it; we are transporting him in a pod like Mewtwo) by accident, you guys can have a day of mourning and move on.

 

[Your Girlfriend's Dad]

And it's really fucking funny that they actually did do it again; it was just "TOO BIG TO RIG!"

Nothing has made me feel more vindicated for my optimism than this.

She’s obviously a Latina.

 

[draggs]

Btw, John Oliver gave his take on Trump (or Drumpf as he says) being re-elected.

holy fuck adderall crispy crackarooski crystal meth and adrenochrome is a hell of a mix to shoot into your eyeballs right before filming starts, john

 

[Prester John]

The star of the Snow White remake has some choice words for Trump supporters. If ya'll own Disney shares, I'd sell cuz this one is gonna tank.

Weird, weird.

But giving people executive appointments that they want because they helped you get elected is literally Hitler!!!!!11

NOOOO! OBAMA DIDN'T APPOINT AMBASSADORS BASED ON THEIR DONATIONS!!!1

 

[Dr J]

Can't you just send him to Canada like why do we have to suffer.

Or send him to Haiti. Wasn't he one of the leftist celebrities telling us Haiti was a beautiful paradise on Earth and not a failed third world shithole?

Don't know what the word for it is but yeah he has the crazy eyes you see on some bpd women right before they cut your cock off.

 

[CarlosDanger]

Thune, Johnson, and Trump all met and later that day Gaetz and Gabbard were appointed. My guess is Trump agreed to stay out of the Senate leadership vote if Thune and Johnson agreed to recess appointments.

 

[TitusOvid]

All the democrats had to do was not treat RFK Jr. like shit and demonize him, but they just couldnt help themselves, now look what has happened.

How many of them realize that the Friday back in August when he threw his support behind trump was probably when the election was lost for them.

They refuse to accept an outsider even of it means losing the election. Only the insiders get the good spots.

 

[Dr J]

you guys can have a day of mourning and move on.

Ironically John Oliver's not that well known here in his native Britain. I think he was on Mock the Week like a million years ago when it started, and then he moved to the US.

No one here would give a shit if that faggot drowned

 

[Catboy Ranch]

I'm just DYING to hear more about bad cabinet picks from.... JOHN FUCKING BOLTON

 

[draggs]

HHS feels like an honorary title. Does it have any power? I feel like head of the FDA would have been better. But I'm an idiot so please educate me.

The Department of Health and Human Services spends almost 20% of the federal budget

It runs

The CDC
The NIH
The FDA
The HRSA
The IHS (the shitty socialist healthcare we give the injuns)
Medicare
Medicaid

And a bunch of other shit

It's low-key one of the 6 most powerful Departments of the federal government (Defense, State, Treasury, HHS, Justice, Homeland Security, the order of which is most powerful depends on who you ask)
